News Article: Big, bad, very very bad Leafs or Just what did we ever do to the NHL?

In this instance, it's not the leafs. It's DoPS really flawed logic in how they dole out punishments. They are essentially saying just make it look like an accident and we'll give you a slap on the wrist.

The only one where they were kind of unfair was the Bunting suspension, which should have been a game less.

I agree that DoPS and Parros are biased against the Leafs.

But I also wonder to what degree the Leafs may contribute to this. One way to account for the few penalties / generally soft play along with heavy suspensions is that... the Leafs don't do anything until it gets to a boiling point and then one player explodes. Comparing it to human personalities, maybe it's like the person who is always nice and a pushover and doesn't assert himself and establish boundaries, and then explodes inappropriately once in a while.

There is no mystery. The Leafs refuse to look into rigged officiating which is flagrant. They will lose games in the playoffs as a result. Ownership seems to not care. It's a joke.

Out of all the heinous crap over the years, this Rielly thing was probably the most loud and united Leafs fans have been over the treatment or Mistreatment actually, because other precedents have been abundantly clear and more recent than not.

Hope its a change in culture of the team, and how the league views and treats our players.

Unfortunately for Kadri half of the Leafs fans blamed the guy for standing up for his teammates.
his Past behavior or not, similar plays resulting in non injured players in playoffs did not EVER HAVE A PLAYER SUSPENDED FOR AN ENTIRE PLAYOFF SERIES.

Being the softest team under Dubas in NHL history and we draw the least PPs, and we have the most penalties levied on us.


Comon... Don't piss on my leg and tell me its raining.

I'm taking your 20 year old daughter in a mini dress and heels over night in my condo, but i'm not gonna dim the lights and play some smooth beats leading to the bedroom. COMON...

I'm gonna sell you a bridge in brooklyn bud... You got 100 Grand?
Comon...

Parros lying in his feces and urine face down, losing 10 IQ points leading to a speech impediment and a lifetime viagra prescription - with Leafs players posterizing him for his legacy... And he isn't salty?
COMON...

COMONNNNN

Agreed. We had an easy bullied team under Dubas.
Hopefully that changes moving forward.

Seeing Nylander fight back numerous times gives me hope
Domi and Bert going wild was great to see.

Under Dubas all 4 would just keep head down and walk away. My biggest gripe with JT

MLSE needs to start hitting the league where it hurts. The NHL would be royally screwed without the Toronto Maple Leafs. Let's remind them of that. No more revenue sharing until the DoPS gets their shit together and realizes that they're f***ing with the wrong ones.

I’m glad articles are starting to be published about Parros/Bettmans treatment of us.

I think we’re all aware now and fed up because the ultimate goal is to win a cup, but how can you do that when you don’t have a fair chance.
